Difference Between Batch Mix Plant and Drum Mix Plant
Asphalt batch mix plant and asphalt drum mix plant is different in many aspects, ranging from working principle, equipment structure, finished mixture to the price of hot mix plant. If you want to buy the asphalt plant, it's supposed to be the first question you must give much consideration. Once you make a decision between asphalt batch mix plant and asphalt drum mix plant , other issues will follow.
There are two kinds of asphalt plants, asphalt batch mix plant and asphalt drum mix plant. The former produces finished mixture in batches with a short interval; the latter can continuously produce finished mixture without interruption. Therefore, in some countries or regions, asphalt batch plant is also called the intermittent asphalt plant, and asphalt drum mix plant is also called the continuous asphalt plant.
 
How do they mix? What are the differences in the finished mixture they produce? Which projects are they suitable for separately? What is the difference in price of them? this article will give you a detailed explanation.
The two basic types of asphalt plants used in the process of making hot mix asphalt are asphalt drum mix plants and batch plants.
Batch plants vs Drum plants
Asphalt batch plants will make hot mix asphalt in fixed batches. One by one batches are continuously made to make hot mix asphalt.
Some of the advantages of asphalt batch plant are:
It offers best quality of hot mix asphalt.
The flexibility offered is best.
It is possible to edit batch sizes and mix material designs frequently.
The control systems are very advanced allowing user to have multiple options.
The level of pollution control is better than a drum mixer.
On the other hand, drum mixers are very much preferred in developing countries. They are good for small to medium sized projects. The end product quality is not as accurate as a batch plant.
Some of the advantages of continuous drum mix plants are:
The initial cost is low compared to batch plant.
The land required to set up is less compared to batch plant.
The process here is continuous. Meaning uninterrupted production is there.
It is easy to have a higher capacity machine without exponentially increase in its price.
Usually drum plants are smaller than the asphalt batch plant and require less space, less energy and less efforts to run. The components are also less in the drum asphalt plants which make them easy to transport and ship.
